Part 1 of the application form gathers key personal details of the client, while the client’s condition is detailed in part 2 of the form.
This figure is based on management information sourced from Social Security Scotland’s case management system. A data cut was extracted on Wednesday 23 October for internal reporting purposes. This data is subject to change and later data cuts from the case management system may include retrospective changes to application numbers for this time period. The pilot launch covers Argyll & Bute, Highland, Aberdeen City, Orkney and Shetland.
As this figure is based on management information, it has not yet been quality assured to the same standard as Official Statistics. A release of Official Statistics on Pension Age Disability Payment, covering applications up to 30 November 2023, will be released on 17 December 2024.
